The very fast and large rollout of LTE network could potentially cause bandwidth congestion on the current Polkomtel’s backbone network. To protect the traffic, Polkomtel plans to deploy a future-proof 100G network that can efficiently and reliably carry fixed mobile convergence (FMC) services.

“IP and OTN synergy will build future-proof backbone networks. The synergy between IP and OTN helps operators excel in the ultra broadband era with more efficient traffic distribution, more reliable network protection, and easier-to-maintain backbone networks,” said Kevin Hu, vice president in charge of solution and marketing, Huawei CEE & Nordic Region.

As a leader in the global fixed broadband (FBB) market, Huawei offers first-class IP and OTN synergy solutions based on its technical expertise and solid commercial experience in both IP and the optical networking fields.

IP and OTN synergy is part of Huawei’s broader Business Opportunity Oriented Solution and Tactics (BOOST) initiative, which is aimed at helping operators achieve commercial success and sustainable development in the ultra wideband era.
